Portuguese term

roteiro

Portuguese to English Law/Patents Geography property boundaries
This is a property description. I know the usual meaning of "roteiro", but I'm not sure in this case:
O imóvel, denominado XXXX, con o domínio de 2.000 alqueires deverá obedecer toda a área, inclusive a existência de eventual excesso de área, descrita dentro do ROTEIRO e confrontações da Matrícula Imobiliária, devidamente registrada sob no. 2.023.

Thanks!
agree Gilmar Fernandes : After the Asker's explanation on why my "roadmap" doesn't fit, this is certainly the logical translation that fits best.

2 KudoZ points awarded for this answer. Comment: "Thanks. I've ascertained that the "roteiro" is just the metes and bounds description of the property as if one were traveling. So I have tentatively decided to use "directions and boundaries" in this paragraph. Elsewhere, I can avoid translating it by jus"

roadmap

One of the most common meaning for ROTEIRO is SCRIPT in TV, movies, plays,etc.

Here I believe it's just plain ROADMAP, based on MICHAELIS dictionary explanations, ref. #3:

ro.tei.ro
sm (rota2+eiro) 1 Náut Livro em que se encontra a descrição das costas marítimas, das correntes, dos baixios, dos climas, dos ventos, de tudo enfim que pode estorvar ou favorecer a navegação. 2 Descrição pormenorizada de uma viagem importante; itinerário. 3 Exposição completa e metódica das ruas, monumentos, museus, panoramas etc., existentes numa localidade e dignos de serem visitados. 4 Norma, regulamento.

Hope this helps.

Note from asker:
Thanks, but in this context it doesn't work. This word appears several times and what follows are the metes and boundaries of pieces of rural property in Brazil. There is no road map given or directions on how to get there--just a description of the boundaries starting from markers embedded in the ground.
